Production question... Harvester vs. Terra priority / order?

[BigFatBalla]

Was thinking about timing of production. I ordered the Terra Harvester. Knowing that the Traveler is about 70% of the total orders, will they prioritize fulfillment of those models? How will that affect production of the Terra?

The short answer is we don't know and there is a long time for that to be determined. TLDR version: If they follow a model like Rivian, they will share much of the parts between the 2 models. still many questions though: Will each model have a dedicated line? Will they offer a high-spec model first?(a la Rivian Launch Edition) Will the harvester be engineered to be installed on potentially every vehicle? Will there have to be re-tooling between harvester and full BEV production? Having waited 38 months for my R1T, I will try to practice patience and soak up every bit of info coming out!

Right now reservations are based on very limited specs and pricing. As they get closer to production candidate, we'll have a better idea of those two things and I imagine some folks will shift what they want. Past history tells us most manufacturers produce the halo versions first because of higher margins and to work out production kinks before they tackle the more mass produced models.
That all being said, we just dont know how Scout is going to approach their production ramp. Too soon to say.

I was hoping for the opposite. I’m ev only, so I hoped they would shoot mine to the front

13 months ago, Scout CEO Scott Keogh "said the SUV will be launched first, likely in 2026, with the pickup to follow six to seven months later". I haven't seen that repeated since and things change (like a 2027 release date). Customer demand and suppliers will be factors. It's too far away to tell.
